The penalised runners at the top of the card should have this between them. DAYS WITHOUT END, a winning bumper and twice successful under Flat Rules, only just failed to concede Diamond Hill 7lb at the Galway Festival and should go one better. Winning bumper Warlike Intent has shown enough in three starts over hurdles to suggest he'll be found a race soon while Military Hill, four times a winner on the Flat, is an interesting recruit to hurdling. Challow is rated higher than the latter on the level despite having a career record of 0-39.
